Kid Kaddy + giveaway

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED…the winner is #173 Carrie!

Kid Kaddy is a brilliant product I recently had the pleasure of trying out with my youngest son who is three.  It’s basically an organized (love that!) and convenient way to carry art supplies.  The unique thing about this product is the way the crayons are separated with their own individual slots and of course the portability of the whole thing.

Did I mention it was brilliant yet?  Oh I did, well that’s because it is.  My son has his crayons and coloring book in his and it has become a church staple for us.  This is the one we have.

Now what I like about this product is that yes it keeps the crayons all nicely organized and separated but that would mean nothing if my son didn’t actually put them back that way.  Well what do you know he actually does.  I don’t know if it’s because all the crayons are all there lined up and separated so he can see which one he wants easily or what but he definitely enjoys not only taking them out but putting them back in as well.  Now that’s brilliant.  Oh wait I said that already.

Created by two sisters, Debbie Gernenz and Kathy Martis, the Kid Kaddy was born as a way to carry not only crayons, but the books as well, in an organized and easily portable fashion.  Very smart thinking ladies.

In fact I now leave my Kid Kaddy right in the van so it’s handy if my son needs something to do while we are traveling or so we can quickly grab it when we get to church or the any other place that requires waiting time and distraction.

Some of the great features of the Kid Kaddy are:

~ two large pockets on the inside that will hold any standard size-coloring book, sketchpad, or notebook

~ a firm, yet light, surface that enhances it’s portability and won’t allow coloring books to bend

~ removable panels to hold crayons, markers, or pencils individually

~ panels can be moved from one side of the Kaddy to the other allowing easy access and acts as a weight to hold down pages

~ made of fabric for a soft feel and includes a hook and loop closure to secure its contents

~ a set of soft handles provides an easy way for small hands to carry

The Kid Kaddy sells for $19.95 and that includes the crayons and coloring book which in my book is a very nice touch.

I get so many compliments on my Kaddy and people are always asking me where I got it from.  It’s one of those ideas that is so simple you wonder why you never thought of it first.  I really do love it!

The two gals of Kid Kaddy are kindly giving away one today to one of you.  The winner will win the Kid Kaddy of their choice from the fabric selections they have available.

All you have to do to enter is leave a comment below telling me which fabric you would choose if you won (don’t worry you can change your mind later if you want).

Deadline is Monday, June 8th at 6:00 pm PST. NOW CLOSED

Good luck!
